Neumann University Athletics

Welcome Returning Student-Athletes and Families,
 
I hope you are all doing well. For this upcoming 2026-2027 sports season, the pre-participation paperwork collection and processing will remain within the ATS, Athletic Trainer System platform. This platform will allow each user to upload all required documents as well as electronically complete needed forms prior the start of athletic participation. 
 
If you are a returning Student-Athlete from the previous Neumann sports season, you will already have an ATS Athlete portal Athlete ID and Password. DO NOT create a second acccount. If you forget your login information, please refer to the ATS portal log in page for steps to reset your password. Any other questions, please contact your assigned team Athletic Trainer or the Director of Sports Medicine, Julia Wayock at wadsworj@neumann.edu.
